Arturia announces availability of V Collection 4 reference software collection

“V Collection 4 covers all of your synth needs — wonderfully authentic emulations of vintage and rare synths. Each new instrument that they release really blows me away!”

- Rik Simpson, 2014 (Coldplay producer/engineer)


GRENOBLE, FRANCE: music software and hardware developer and manufacturer Arturia is proud to announce availability of V Collection 4 — its premium-packaged ultimate reference software collection of keyboards and drum machines, updated and expanded to include all of the cutting-edge company’s latest software instruments for demanding musicians — as of December 2…

V Collection 4 takes the premium software collection concept musically further forward, packing an even more powerful punch than its V Collection 3.0 predecessor. All 12 of Arturia’s award-winning Analog Classics range of authentic-sounding software recreations of classic analogue instruments are now included, including the latest VOX Continental V (Sixties-vintage VOX Continental 300 combo organ), Solina V (Seventies-vintage Solina String Ensemble string machine), and Matrix 12 V (Eighties-vintage Oberheim Matrix-12 polysynth) additions. Also new to V Collection 4 is SPARK 2, Arturia’s advanced sound-sculpting and beat performance software featuring over 170 drum machines and over 5,500 patterns ranging from hip-hop to many of the latest EDM genres.

Thanks to those four new software instruments, V Collection 4 represents even better value than its predecessor as the highly-competitive street price remains the same. Saying that, upgraded versions of all other software titles included in the covetable collection make for an improved user experience, as does using Arturia Software Centre (ASC), Arturia’s straightforward software protection and registration system that allows activation on up to five computers. And it goes without saying that all software titles included in V Collection 4 provide full compatibility with the latest formats and hosts on Mac (OS X) and PC (Windows).

Whereas the V Collection 3.0 packaging was a somewhat weighty affair, accommodating multiple installer DVDs plus printed user manuals, V Collection 4 stylishly sheds some pounds by helpfully including an all-encompassing installer on one USB flash drive, yet still manages to comfortably accommodate even more printed user manuals in English… one for each software instrument included.

Inspiration comes quickly to those demanding superior-quality sounds, so whether you’re a composer, DJ, keyboardist, musician, performer, producer, or sound designer V Collection 4 definitely delivers! Shipping with over 6,000 professionally-produced presets between them, all V Collection 4 instruments are child’s play to control with an external MIDI keyboard, such as one of those from Arturia’s own KeyLab range. And all will happily run in standalone mode or within your favourite DAW. Do yourself and your music a favour and check out V Collection 4… today!

Founded in Grenoble, France, in 1999, Arturia specialises in the development of music software and hardware for professional and amateur musicians alike. Focusing on innovation, the company strives to integrate the latest advances in computer music research and technology into its products. This involves working closely with partner research institutions, such as IRCAM France, in the development of cutting-edge musical instruments and software, which have gone on to be used in making many hit records and Hollywood soundtracks. One of Arturia’s core technologies is TAE® (True Analog Emulation), an advanced proprietary technology allowing accurate modelling of analogue circuitry behaviour on personal computers. Developed by Arturia’s in-house Signal Processing team, this technology has been employed to successfully recreate the sounds produced by many classic analogue synthesizers. Having successfully launched Origin, its first hardware synthesizer (housing several synth classics and associated components in one powerful, no-holds-barred DSP-based modular system), and the hybrid hardware/software SPARK Creative Drum Machine (cleverly combining analogue synthesis, physical modelling, and samples with the intuitive workflow of a hardware drum machine), 2012 saw Arturia introducing the cost-conscious MiniBrute, an amazingly compact and bijou analogue monosynth (boasting MIDI, USB, and CV connectivity together with a host of unique features). Today Arturia has broadened its appeal further still by successfully entering the iOS soft synth market and building upon its analogue synth and hybrid hardware/software successes.
